Identification of candidate chemosensory receptors based on transcriptome analysis in the monophagous insect Protegira songi (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae)

BMC Genomics
Background Insects perceive chemical cues from conspecifics and hosts through their sensitive chemosensory system. The chemosensory receptors, which are mainly represented by odorant receptors (ORs), ionotropic receptors (IRs), and gustatory receptors ...

Exploring the Association Between Complaints of Sensory Hypersensitivity and Sleep Disturbances After Acquired Brain Injury: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep disturbances are prevalent after acquired brain injury and negatively affect quality of life. Sensory hypersensitivity may cause or exacerbate sleep disturbances, yet evidence on this relationship after acquired brain injury is lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesised positive relationship between the severity ...

The roles of gustatory receptor neuron populations in modulation of Drosophila melanogaster naive courtship and courtship conditioning

, 2006
Although Drosophila melanogaster male courtship behavior involves multimodal sensory input, non-volatile cuticular hydrocarbons (CHs) on courtship target are thought to be crucial in both innate courtship behavior (Ferveur and Greenspan, 2000; Jallon and

Metabolic and Behavioral Impacts of Gustatory Receptor NlGr23 Silencing in the Brown Planthopper

The brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens, is the most destructive insect pest of rice. BPH infestations severely threaten rice yield worldwide. The gustatory receptor NlGr23 plays a critical role in mediating the repulsive reaction to oxalic acid ...

Virtuous Deferral

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Virtue epistemology has long struggled with the “Creditability Dilemma”: how can knowledge gained through deference be creditable to the knower if it primarily depends on others’ cognitive work? We propose a novel solution by developing a telic account of doxastic deference as a distinctive kind of social‐epistemic performance.

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Weight Loss: A Critical Review of Mechanisms

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT GLP‐1 receptor agonist medications have the potential to promote marked weight loss, but maximal and sustained benefit may be compromised by poor compliance and cessation of use. Development of next‐generation medications that address current obstacles to effective use and development of effective adjunct treatments will benefit from better ...

An integrated behavioral change model for smoking cessation in periodontal care: The four‐stage behavioral support staircase

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Smoking tobacco is a critical modifiable risk factor for periodontal and peri‐implant diseases. This narrative review integrates established behavioral theories with communication‐based psychological processes to propose an evidence‐based model for smoking cessation support in periodontal care.

Avoid Confusion! Does Survival Processing Shape the Spontaneous Use of Learning Strategies for Distinguishing Edible and Poisonous Mushroom Twins?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hunter‐gatherers faced the survival threat of confusing edible mushrooms with their poisonous twins, imposing selection pressure on those who failed to detect subtle visual differences. Grounded in the ancestral priorities framework, which posits that the human mind is adapted to handle prehistoric challenges, we investigated whether humans ...
